Weathering steel

Weathering steel, often referred to by the genericized trademark COR TEN steel and sometimes written without the hyphen as corten steel, is a group of steel alloys which were developed to eliminate the need for painting, and form a stable rust like appearance after several years' exposure to weather.

What is Corten Weathering Steel?

Weathering steel, best known under the trademark COR TEN® steel, is a group of steel alloys which were developed to obviate the need for painting, and form a stable rust like appearance if exposed to the weather for several years. Weathering steel has increased resistance to atmospheric corrosion when compared to other steels.

The name Corten is a trademark name held by United States Steel Corporation for their grade of A 242 weathering Steel. This name is commonly used in Australia also to refer to Weathering Steels and many forms of weathering steels are imported under the name Corten while not being sourced from the US.

High strength low alloy steel

High strength low alloy steel (HSLA) is a type of alloy steel that provides better mechanical properties or greater resistance to corrosion than carbon steel.HSLA steels vary from other steels in that they are not made to meet a specific chemical composition but rather to specific mechanical properties.
